Basically, Mutt appears to be functioning differently using redirected input, than if used as a mail client. This is not the case on other servers I have worked on, but I am unable to correct this on this particular environment. Suse Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 mutt v1.5.17 Rather than post the contents of every config I have played with and failed to change, if you have any ideas, please let me know what sections of what configs you'd like to see? I'd appreciate any efforts to help me hold onto the bits of hair I haven't yet pulled out working through this issue! (As background, the need for this to work is we have database users emailing from a program, and use temporary mutt.rc files to send mail from these users. They do not have shell logins) |
